The Road Going Sports Car Challenge was led from start to finish by poleman Steve Cole in his TVR. Bryant's Morgan tried hard to keep up and the two cars pulled well away from the chasing field. An excellent battle for third resulted in the spoils going to Jon Wrightson's Elan (and Class B) from Bob Watson's Carrera RS. Class A was taken by Paul Lucas in his Spitfire.
